I did this on purpose knowing damn well what the players would do, so I guess you could say it is my own fault:
Following the sound of the rhythmic metallic noises you crest a low rise to see a line of men. They appear to be bound to one another with a long length of heavy chain, as they swing pickaxes down into what looks like a disused railroad grade. Observing from the back of a wagon nearby are four men who lounge about drinking from tin cups, each of them with some type of longarm within easy reach. Another wagon next to this one holds a huge iron cage (currently empty)
Players ask for clarification of relative positions of the "slaves" and their "overseers", make a hasty assault plan (which naturally calls for heavy use of their Ma Deuce--if you give them something, they will really really
really want to use it) and proceed to execute the first successful jailbreak of the 22nd Century. These "slaves" of course being convicts working a legitimate chain gang.
